Random walk, scattering, and invariant imbedding --I: one-dimensional discrete case.
ResearchPublished 1957
A method of treating problems involving random walk processes, based upon the principle of invariant imbedding. Since scattering processes are often formulated in terms of random walk, a new method of treating scattering processes is used. In subsequent papers the same methodology will be applied to corresponding problems for multi-dimensional regions and to continuous versions.

This publication is part of the RAND paper series. The paper series was a product of RAND from 1948 to 2003 that captured speeches, memorials, and derivative research, usually prepared on authors' own time and meant to be the scholarly or scientific contribution of individual authors to their professional fields. Papers were less formal than reports and did not require rigorous peer review.
